Q. I have done short style Practitioner and Master Practitioner courses, what do I need to do to meet the entry requirements for the full training (Modules I II & III)?

There are several options

Specialist Courses
If you have taken shorter Certification courses (less than 125 hours at Practitioner and Master Practitioner) but you have NLP experience as a result of taking lots of specialist courses e.g. The 4 day New Code NLP course, 4 day Modelling course, NLP Advanced Skills, The Healer Within, Metaphors and Butterflies or similar courses with other NLP companies, your total NLP hours of training may be sufficient to satisfy the entry level criteria. If you want to apply for Trainers Training on the basis you have attended shorter Practitioner and Master Practitioner courses, but have subsequently completed a number of other NLP courses give full details of all your NLP Training on the application form.

In cases such as those outlined above, we may suggest that you acquire the NLP Practitioner and Master Practitioner Multi Media study sets to ensure you are grounded in the content of NLP, or to assist you make up the shortfall in hours you may have.
